i need some input perhaps on what wifi apk # you guys are using cause im still having issues with phone shutting off while tethered using most apk #'s i try. i fixed permissions/wiped data/turned on journal ect.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Unfortunately, since the app is a prebeta, it is bound to happen. Not the rom, more the actual app itself. Have you set it to epic 4g though in settings? And make sure when you go to start the tether that you're on 3g, and then once started turn on 4g if you'd like :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] darren.wlsn1:
ya did all that but in no way am i saying its a rom issue so im clear to others. can we still use the old green apk cause i tried and it dont work and i only get 3g where im at now so thats not a issue? thanx for all your help.

So I started the process of flashing this rom just now. I wasn't on EC05, so I followed the instructions on the front page. I used odin to get to EC05, and then I was on clockwork 2.5. so i installed clockwork 3.0 from the file in the post. I booted into clockwork and it made it's backup. I then restarted the phone and it's hanging on the samsung startup screen. I can still boot into clockwork but I don't know what to do. Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] spyder09:
duck - when you booted into cw3 did you wipe data, cache and dalvik cache 3x AND THEN install the rom zip before you rebooted? i made this mistake the first time i rooted to install a custom rom and just had it boot loop on the samsung screen
[Epic 4G Android Development] churro7:
much better response and no skipped keys yet
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jesse6749:
No I did not cause I wanted to use a different sd card anyway.

Quick question - Does this rom support Dark Tremor's A2SD??
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
just gotta say, you got time on of over an hour, with display on for almost 40 minutes, since last charge, and you're at over 80% full on your battery. that's really good performance. even the absolute best performance from battery will be limited by a screen on time of under 3 hours, these super amoleds really do wheeze the juice...

Also the only time I get fcs are when I load up dungeon defenders. Freaking A. I'm sure it's not the dome fault. Also everytime I fix permissions in any rom it always feels like fixing them causes more problems then it solves so I just back up and reflash
[Epic 4G Android Development] siirus09:
I think this is Froyo's issue and not the ROMs but after doing a clean install of SRF (wiped, flashed, permissions fixed, etc) my text message notification icon shows the last number of unread messages even after I've read them. The only way to get rid of it is to exit out to the homescreen then go back into the last received text.

Also, after having the latest 1.1.0 SFR installed (with Journaling on) for 2 weeks without any hitches, I've gotten a few freeze ups during random times. I'm hoping next release will tidy up the kernel because Id hate to have to go to another one.

Once in awhile when I use quick reboot, my battery will just die to 15% no matter where it was. Other than that, strange issues with stock browser going blank while scrolling after screen shut off, and slightly more battery usage, the latest ROM is pretty solid. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jvermillion:
stock wallpaper gallery?

Sorry if this question has been asked/answered elsewhere...I couldn't really find anything going through the search results.

Does anyone know of an update.zip to re-add the stock wallpaper gallery? I liked a lot of the photos that came on the Epic, but it seems they're gone in this ROM. Are they contained in one of the stock apps that were removed, or ... ?

Thanks for the rom, though. I really like it, and I'm glad to have the AOSP lockscreen back too (that was my favorite thing about AOSP ROMs on my Hero)!

[Epic 4G Android Development] bullitnutz:
Still noticing the "sleeping and won't wake up" issue sporadically after a triple-wipe and reflash. HOWEVER, with a little research I think I may have found the culprit.

With this kernel, how low is the lowest speed step on the CPU? It may be basically "bottoming out" on my hardware (I'm an early adopter and have an early hardware version) and without SetCPU I don't have a way to change that minimum.

See, I like to have my phone make the soothing sounds of a thunderstorm when I sleep. It's an I-grew-up-in-FL thing. Overnight, my phone has NEVER had this kind of crash. However, when it's just chilling, sitting in my pocket or at my desk at work (i.e. idle) it will occasionally be unable to wake, and it will do this sometimes multiple times within an hour.

Deduction powers activate!

Phone experiences an unknown crash and is unable to wake on occasion.

Phone does not crash when not idle.

Idling may be correlated to the crashing.

SO......... I went and got SetCPU. Setting lowest step to 200MHz, will report back.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
20% an hour is excessive with my usage pattern. 10% is closer to normal. I'm going to keep an eye on this ROM.

FWIW, I'm journaled so I won't have the major issues I had last time, but this battery drain during use seems a bit high. It does extremely well idle though. Deep sleep only takes half a percent per hour.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:

Display kills my battery. I lose 50% with heavy usage in 1.25 hrs. I think there is no way around that.

Also, will voodoo color be in the next kernel. I really like this one, don't want to switch.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
not that this helps, but, I get "random" FC's (random as in I can't pinpoint exactly why it happens)...it doesn't display that one occurred, it does the 1x vibrate...pause...3x vibrate, and most times it'll result in black screen then seeing the ACS boot logo just animating for a who knows how long. gotta pop the batt and it's fine.

I've found it mostly occurs when installing an apk off the sd card; but its happened while doing other stuff as well. If I can find a pattern, I'll let you know.
[Epic 4G Android Development] OMGLOLetcetc:
Thanks for the ROM.

Just noticed that the notification drop down bar acts as brightness control if you touch and hold it without pulling down.

Is this a feature with this rom or something 2.2 always had?

Edit: nevermind just found the answer, it has always been there...
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
no...but I'm doing it now, we'll see how that goes. I read quite a few pages in this thread, but didn't see anything (to me) that pointed in this direction.

After applying a ROM to my Epic and a ROM to my Wife's Transform (that was a 4-hour ordeal just to get it working), I have one word for ROM makers: Documentation.

The biggest problem I see is that you (as joe blow) have to read the main posts, then jump to this thread, go look at that wiki, read post #39 on page 26, and by the time you do all this 2 hours have gone by and you havn't even started and you're possibly more confused than you were when you started.

A wiki, a txt file, a blog, a few forum posts (on the front page), I'll even accept hieroglyphics...it don't matter to me. But these things just need documentation/better documentation in one consolidated spot.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the work and effort. It's just very frustrating from an end-user stand point ;-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] tcooper85:
I have spare parts...just really don't know how to use it. How can u diagnose it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
99% of what you need is probably contained in the first 3 posts of this thread. Read those, and you'll have all the info you need about this specific ROM. Now, if you're new to the whole scene, then yeah, you have to go elsewhere to find out exacty what's what.

The other 1,200 pages of this thread probably contain about 15 questions asked a billion differnet ways, all with the same answer. I would venture a guess that 1% of the posts in this thread are original and worthwhile. The rest comes from the END USERS who refuse to read, and ultimately, think for themselves. Search for "Words with Friends" and see how many questions/posts/answers come from that alone. It's obscene.

Quick update: fixing permissions seems to have fixed my stuttering audio in recorded video.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Yeah I think you only need to read the thread if you have a problem.

Installation itself only requires the first couple posts...mostly just to see what's so special about it and decide whether to try it.

I'm still tweaking battery life. I underclock when screen is off to 200-400mhz. Set juice defender to aggressive and I'm only letting Pandora stream when I use it at work. I'm still loosing about 10% every 4 hours with the phone not in use

[Epic 4G Android Development] Mutiny32:
I'm beginning to notice a correlation between HW acceleration, VooDoo brightness, and hard locks. I notice the screen brightness change just before the phone does a hard lock that requires a battery pull. LauncherPro's HW accelerated UI as well as YouTube also appear to be a very good way of causing hard-locks.

Just an observation.
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
It's very pretty and I'm looking forward to the boot to recovery option, but I'm curious as to why the Reboot is the only 3d-ish (glossy) button. Also, I always imagine power off in more of a red color like on most OS's. Not a complaint, just a thought, I'm looking forward to the next release :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
I get that 99% of what you need is always in the main posts...if you're used to these things. I'm not. This ROM was my first venture, and it was very frustrating because everything is written on the pretense that you know what you are doing. I understand that after a while, you loose sight of the little things; I admit doing that myself when I write tech bulletins for my employees.

I don't even want to start about the ROM I found on SDX for the transform.

But is it so hard to create common documentation for the "lay person" and attach to the main posts that explain the little things? The youtube video's help a little, but lets face it, watching some dude play with his phone for 15 mins and rambling on just to see that 20 seconds of important information is a deal breaker.

Then again, I guess one might say "if you don't see it, make it, and stop *****ing", which I might just do...at least for future reference.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
There are already "how to get started" threads in the general areas.

You should already know what to do when you're at the point of reading about and downloading specific ROMs. They don't vary in how to flash them.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Those are just temp images so I could compile the framework. I got something planned once finished
[Epic 4G Android Development] SpicyBurrito:
I was praying you guys would add an option for recovery. Now I can't wait.

This ROM is great, although I haven't been getting the battery life everyone is praising in this version. I think my battery was better in 1.0.2. So what I did was flash Visionkernel. I also use Juicedefender and setcpu and my battery has improved since. When the next version comes out, I think I'll just wipe and flash EVERYTHING(Including SD card) and start over since it seems some people in the thread have gotten results with doing that.

But great rom nonetheless.

Bluetooth headset will not connect

I am having this same problem. I have a Blueant Q2. It shows that it is paired but it will not connect.

I unpaired and re-paired the headset. It paired and started transferring the contacts. It never announced that it completed the contacts transfer. I have restarted the phone multiple times and still the same issue. I also reset the Q2 and still have the same results.

Anything else I should look at?

gmail search...

I have kind of an odd problem.

My gmail app won't search properly. It just hangs on "loading conversations", and then eventually times out with "no network connection." The Gmail app itself works fine for displaying the inbox, or priority inbox. I tried going into Settings-->Applications-->and clearing gmail and even google services framework, but still no dice. K9 works, but it won't search messages that it hasn't downloaded (still on the gmail server), so it's not optimal for what I want to do.

Has anyone experienced this, or does anyone have any advice for further steps I could take to remedy this problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Are you on a modded gmail or just the one from the market?

I'll try this if the wipe doesn't work. I hadn't thought of it until after I had already started wiping. Doh!

On the other hand, I do like the gmail client better than the stock email. It has a better designed interface, but I'm obviously willing to give it up for a working search. I tried fixing permissions too before I wiped.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Sorry about that.

Questions about the stock apps zip in the OP before I try flashing.

First, is the browser even on there? Second, will flashing it put everything on my phone or will it give me the option to pick & choose? If I can't pick & choose, can I unzip it and get just the browser out of it for pushing?

I'm just wondering how to use this zip.

Still getting terrible battery drain as a result of the Gallery apk. Battery History>Sensor Usage shows Galley as the top offender with the time matching almost exactly the time since unplugged. The only way to stop it is to powercycle. But as soon as I open Gallery, it takes over and kills the batery in short order. I'm almost positive that this problem is related to the fact that the 3D Gallery uses the accelerometer. Anybosy hav any ideas to resolve hi short of wiping everything? I've already tried wiping cache/dalvik with no change. Thanks in advance.
